The upcoming revision to AS9100, to be rebranded as “IA9100<\/em>,” will have “frequent, smaller updates<\/em>” according to a newsletter published by PRI, the administrators of the Nadcap special process accreditation program.<\/p>\n

PRI released a brief news summary<\/a> on “Major updates to ISO and Aerospace Standards<\/em>” that included the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it claim, while admitting that PRI is “waiting for more information about the changes<\/em>“:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Unlike ISO, publisher SAE and developer IAQG are not required to wait for international consensus or ISO member voting to release an update to their aerospace standards.<\/p>\n

The notion of “frequent, smaller updates<\/em>” may raise challenges for AS9100-certified companies, who will have to implement changes as they are released, potentially moving the goalposts for conformity at a greater frequency.<\/p>\n

PRI also announced that AS9104\/1 will be updated as IA9104\/1, and will introduce new requirements for AS9100 certification bodies. This includes: verifying on-time delivery, customer satisfaction, and quality at all future audits; recalculating the minimum audit duration; and yet another attempt to redefine “campus<\/em>” structures for companies with more than one facility. IAQG has struggled with the latter issue, having already made two or three changes to “campus<\/em>” considerations with each update of AS9104\/1.<\/p>\n

IAQG has largely ignored end-user feedback on the AS standards,\u00a0recognizing only its member “aerospace primes<\/em>” as customers for<\/span> AS9100 certification. As a result, companies disagreeing with the IAQG’s approach are left without any means of pushback.<\/p>\n

The PRI publication also claimed that ISO 9001:2026 will be published at the end of 2026, not earlier as originally planned, and that IA9100 is then likely to be released “Mid 2027<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

For ISO 9001, a three-year transition period is expected, meaning companies will have to the fourth quarter of 2029 to implement the changes; however, IAQG has not announced its transition period, which is likely to be less than three years if the group intends on more frequent updates.<\/p>\n
